Honor Levy talks about the art, movies, and music she consumed while working on 'My First Book.' Her picks include 'Pretty Persuasion' and the internet archive.
If Honor Levy’s life flashes before her eyes when she dies, there’s a good chance it’s going to be entirely screenshots — a fitting end considering that her short-story collection traverses a life lived on the internet.. “I think I'm an older Gen Z person, so I think real Gen Z people will think this is very outdated,” Levy tells NYLON from her bedroom in Los Angeles.
I love language. Sometimes I type something with Kaomojis, and I'm like, “Oh my gosh, I've just summoned an ancient Sumerian demon.” All the different Unicode symbols and keyboards have ancient Sumerian and hieroglyphs, and you can just make combinations and faces with them. I love the idea that these are little sentences or little words. I think it's a new type of language.and websites that are sort of online encyclopedias. I also love old web things like Geocities and Neocities.
